Private bug reported:

This below patch needs to be part of the Ubuntu 24.04 and other OS
versions which supports Intel Sierra Forrest and Granite Rapids Server
Processors.

When both CONFIG_RAS_CEC and CONFIG_ACPI_EXTLOG are enabled, Linux does
not clear the status word of the BIOS supplied error record for
corrected errors. This may prevent logging of subsequent uncorrected
errors.
